We have an elder in my wife's hall who has two unbaptized JW children who are now adults and moved on.
Being raised as dubs from birth, how they escaped the dip is beyond me. I wonder how much pressure this guy has been for allowing that to happen.

Elder continues serving as elder after his daughter got disfellowshipped!
by hardtobeme inthis is what is happening in a spanish congregation in our area.
this happened 3 weeks ago.
this brother conducted the school and after the school was over, another elder gave the announcement: "( name of the person) is not longer a jehovah's witness".

I had to believe in the devil before I believed in god. I didn’t find him listening to King Diamond records or playing with Ouija boards. I found him in people making incredibly stupid comments about seven magical men in New York, people shunning their own children or signing cards that would let their children die without even knowing who the author of Acts much less the context of it.
Watchtower is just a mockery to make people atheists. Not surprised at the findings here.

"Marked" for association with "worldly guy"
by Anon_SA1 inmy best friend has recently been "marked" for associating with a "worldly guy" what advice can you give me to pass onto her?

thank you in advance.

Getting marked is a wonderful way to go " inactive " without being d'fd.
You can avoid the disassociation letter and no need to bother with a slow fade.

Blood Cards on File with the Elders?
by EyesOpenHeartBroken ini have a question for elders here or recent elders.
were the elders, in the last 10 years, given instruction to keep a copy of every publishers blood card on file at the kh?.
we moved to our current cong 6 years ago, and shortly after we moved in, the boe requested everyone update and give a copy of card to the kh.

Holy shit
I always thought it was just a card you carried in the event of emergency. If you chose to misplace it, well you know. I know alot of jw who don't ask don't tell about the blood card.
They are storaged at the Kh basically giving the elders power of attorney?
I sure hope that is not true.

What would happen?
by Clambake inif i asked the elders if i could see or have any secret files they have on my wife?
does the headship of the house or marriage trump their kangaroo court or do they think they secret police or something.
either way, it pisses me off..

I didn't say the Watchtower won't help.
You will get prayers and extra magazines to hand out.
What else do you need ?

Engage them in circular religious debates that go nowhere while being as smug and pompous was possible. Make sure you refer to Islam as " false religion " and act really surprised when they become offended.
Then later invite them to assembly and literally see if you can bore them to death.

Maybe someone from the humanitarian and development division of the Watchtower and tract society can help you and your family. Maybe help re-located to you and your family to a western country and give the needed funds to start a new life.
Oh wait, the WTS wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire.
The solution is more field service and prayer.
If you are killed, at least you will get an Awake cover.
